Serialization and Deserialization are critical processes in Java that facilitate the conversion of objects into byte streams for storage and transmission, along with their reconstruction back into objects. Java provides built-in support for these concepts through the Serializable and Externalizable interfaces, enabling efficient object management in distributed systems. Key techniques such as handling transient fields and managing serialVersionUID are emphasized for robust application design.
